Fluid flow in porous media is a subject of considerable scientific and engineering interest, as it underpins a wide range of natural and industrial processes – from groundwater movement and oil ...

The University of Wyoming’s Center of Innovation for Flow through Porous Media (COIFPM) is accepting proposals for research grants as part of the Wyoming Gas Injection Initiative (WGII). Oil and gas ...

What laws govern how chemicals pass through filters? How do droplets of oil move through layers of stone? How do blood cells travel through a living organism? A team of researchers has discovered how ...

Porous media play a critical role in various industrial fields due to their complex pore networks and considerable specific surface areas. The transport and reaction phenomena within porous media are ...

Researchers at TU Wien have developed numerical models to simulate the movement of fluids in porous materials.

In the home, the lab and the factory, electric fields control technologies such as Kindle displays, medical diagnostic tests and devices that purify ...

Porous media such as concrete physically represent a spherical packing of different components -- in this case cement, rock and water. The mechanical properties of such mixtures are still difficult to ...
